RT Conference Proceedings T1 A Highly Available Cluster of Web Servers with Increased Storage Capacity A1 García Sánchez, José Daniel A1 Carretero Pérez, Jesús A1 García Carballeira, Félix A1 Singh, David E. A1 Fernández Muñoz, Javier AB Web servers scalability has been traditionally solved by improving software elements or increasing hardware resources of the server machine.Another approach has been the usage of distributedarchitectures. In such architectures, usually, file al-location strategy has been either full replication or full distribution. In previous works we have showed that partial replication offers a good balance between storage capacity and reliability. It offers much higherstorage capacity while reliability may be kept at an equivalent level of that from fully replicated solutions.In this paper we present the architectural details of Web cluster solutions adapted to partial replication.We also show that partial replication does not imply a penalty in performance over classical fully replicated architectures. For evaluation purposes we have used a simulation model under the OMNeT++ framework and we use mean service time as a performance comparison metric.
